Sexually explicit SMS ads spark alarm
Bangkok' The Nation reports that sexually explicit images sent via text messaging are becoming more common in Thailand with flyers advertising such services being handed out in front of department stores and schools.
"A few weeks ago we found that someone had been handing out pamphlets in front of the institute that gave instructions on how to download sexually explicit images," said Ratthapong Punyanuwat, an assistant professor at Suansunantha Ratchapatra Institute.
"There was a group of students from a popular school nearby, laughing while checking out those obscene image," he said.
"This is becoming a really big problem. I'd like to recommend that parents look after their children, warning them not to become involved with this sort of thing."
